Arson - You Know It Lyrics

Snake eyes, black ties
We run this town and you know it
Rough hands, no chance
I'm a stubborn lad so don't push it
Don't come-a knockin' with sticks and stones
We've had our share of broken bones

We've seen, what it does to people like us

We have been through everything your god has declared sin
Still here. We're still right here
What good is a heart of gold when you taste the dirt, when you breathe the cold
You'll see, what we do to people like you

It's like a bird of prey, in almost every way
It reigns down when you'd least expect
It's like a poison sting
You know the pain they bring but the cure is worse, so just let it sink
It's like a dog astray, roaming night and day
You fear the eyes more than the teeth. But there's a cure for it
Bring gas and a lighter, kid
And let the flames gnaw at your feet

We run this town and you know it
